Tired of being the \"shefault\" parent responsible for all aspects of her busy household, Eve Rodsky counted up all the unpaid, invisible work she was doing for her family--and then sent that list to her husband, asking for things to change. His response was...underwhelming. Rodsky realized that simply identifying the issue of unequal labor on the home front wasn't enough: She needed a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003esolution\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e to this universal problem.
